ABIDE

Refuge helps mobilize and train church members who want to live among high density refugee populations.

OBJECTIVE

Refuge seeks to empower church members who want to live among high density refugee populations. We believe that as lives are shared, deep relationships will develop that have the capacity not only touch lives, but also transform communities.

Church Community Adoption

Our hope is that churches will establish long-term initiatives and strategies around embracing the refugees in our city, and that some churches would be called to adopt a community as a whole. This will enable long-term sustainable ministry in a given community. Refuge will come alongside these churches to offer training and other help as needed.

Abide

We mobilize church members who are interested in moving into one of the communitieswhere Refuge works. We then partner with the local churches to provide additionaloversight and training in the following areas:
